In many cases, \u201cIt\u2019s okay\u201d actually means \u201cno.\u201d<\/p>\n
For example, when asked at a convenience store if you need a plastic bag, saying \u201cI don\u2019t need one\u201d or \u201cIt\u2019s not necessary\u201d can come across as a bit harsh, so I think most people tend to say, \u201cIt\u2019s okay.\u201d<\/p>\n
\"That's fine\" also used to have a positive connotation, but nowadays it seems to be used more often in a negative context. It seems that language changes with the times.<\/p>\n
For event carpenters, the race against time can be grueling\u2014they often have to work through the night to finish by morning. Since the blueprints they receive reflect the designer\u2019s vision, they strive to complete the work as closely as possible to that vision. At the same time, they cannot afford to delay the start of the event. They work with intense focus within the limited time available.<\/p>\n
In a situation like this, if, for example, you want someone else to hand you a hammer they\u2019re holding, you don\u2019t have time to say, \u201cExcuse me, I\u2019m very sorry to trouble you, but could you please hand me the hammer you\u2019re holding?\u201d<\/p>\n
So what should you do? According to an event carpenter I spoke with, even when dealing with someone senior to you, \u201cA hammer!<\/strong>\"That's all they say,\" I'm told. With that, \"Sure thing!<\/strong>\"They'll hand you a hammer,\" they say. Since we both understand the situation, apparently that's all it takes.<\/p>\nQuestion: \"Why do people in the construction industry tend to speak so harshly?\"<\/h2>\n
